I was wondering about the use of the -T option in virtual_oss. For one, what the argument -T expects, is always going to be /dev/sndstat, so I find that to be quite redundant in the first place. Also, is there a case where we wouldn't want the device to be registered to sndstat? Attached is a patch based on the upstream [1]. I think it is more sensible to register the device to sndstat unconditionally. Only problem with this is backwards compatibility. I suppose if we want to not break things, we could alternatively make the -T option a no-op. What do you think? Christos [1] https://github.com/freebsd/virtual_oss
